A Parent's Reward
There's nothing greater than the love you have given, to risk your own life for the sake of your children.
There's nothing more special than the joy on their face. When you simply look down on them and give them your praise.
It's wonderful knowing you have done something so right. You brought up a child whose life shines so bright.
You try very hard not to make a mistake, but we are all human and a few are at stake.
You love them, and care for them, as each stage goes by. You cry when a milestone slowly creeps by.
To receive love unconditionally is a parent's reward. There's nothing more special, fulfilling nor pure; than the love from a child that you simply adore.

Yielding fruit
of greatest gain,
when sowers love
